[ Upstream commit 668ed92e651d3c25f9b6e8cb7ceca54d00daa96d ]
Add a guardrail to prevent freeing memory that is still on a list. This includes either a dispose list or the LRU list.
This is the sign of a bug, but this class of bugs can be detected so that they don't endanger system stability, especially while debugging.
